From Moab, drive south on Highway 191 to 300 South, turn left (east) and follow the signs to the Slickrock Bike Trail. At the Sand Flats entrance booth, tell them you are headed to Warner Lake Campground (entrance is free) and continue 17.5 miles on a dirt road to the paved La Sal Loop Road. Turn right and drive 2.4 miles on the paved La Sal Loop Road to the dirt Warner Lake Road.
This spot is amazing. It is very rural. It is a 5-mile dirt road, one way, to get to the campground. And that turn off is from the paved La Sal mountain Scenic byway Loop from a Moab Utah. Does have volt toilets. Is dry camping. Has a small lake. The lake is too small too boat or kayak in. Is in a beautiful birtch tree Forest. The campground is small, and the dirt road is maintained. For camping, I am unsure if there is a water source. If going research that first. We visited nearby dead horse state park. Which also allows dogs. And their camping, just like Canyonlands, is mainly on open grounds. Which can be windy in our desert environment. This Campground is tucked in a forest. And very quaint. Consider avoiding congested National local parks and research this spot.
Beautiful campground in the LaSal mountains of Moab, UT. Aspen groves and pine trees with a small lake. Campsites are spread out so you have some privacy. Our site #17, was level, spacious and had a nice large in ground fire pit. Clean vault toilets, no hookups. The only thing about this campground is the gravel road leading to it. It's narrow in places and very bumpy. Do nor recommend large RVs.
About a 45 minute trip out of Moab, up a one lane winding road that turns to dirt. Great way to beat the heat of the valley. At around 9200 feet elevation, you will have cool evenings and amazing scenery. Camp sites are spaced apart enough that you won't be bothered by neighboring campers. Sites are $20 per night. There are hiking and mountain biking trails that start right out of the camp site.
Cool days, ice cold nights. Lots of wildlife, the lake is freezing cold. The aspen canopy is thick but the campsite is very well maintained. The 5 mile dirt road into camp is steep and winding, but accessible to any vehicle. Vault toilets are as clean as you'll find. This site is 1 hour outside of Moab.
